Benefits

  • THREE MODES OF ACTION when tank-mixed with glyphosate
  • FLEXIBILITY to apply up to one day post-planting in soybeans
  • STRONGER RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT with two active ingredients that control glyphosate-, Group 2- and triazine-resistant biotypes
  • FASTER CONTROL through systemic and contact activity for broad-spectrum weed control
  • WIDE SPECTRUM CONTROL of broadleaf weeds
  • Convenient all-in-one formulation
  • Tank-mixable with most pre-emergent herbicides
  • No surfactant required

Weed control challenge

Glyphosate alone used to provide an effective burndown option ahead of corn, cereals or soybeans. But the widespread adoption of herbicide-tolerant crops, and the alarming spread of glyphosate- and Group 2-resistant weeds including Canada fleabane, giant and common ragweed, and others, has dramatically reduced the effectiveness of glyphosate-only control programs.

Nufarm solution

The all-in-one formulation of BlackHawk makes it easier for growers to spray when they need to – up to one day after planting soybeans. When tank-mixed with glyphosates like Credit Xtreme, BlackHawk delivers faster, more complete weed control in a pre-emergent burndown treatment than glyphosate alone, Group 2 and Group 14 only herbicides. With two active ingredients and two modes of action, BlackHawk doubles as an effective tool for resistance management.
